Overview
- Real Sociedad beat Barcelona 2-1 at Anoeta on Sunday, ending Barça's 11-match winning streak.
- With Carlos del Cerro Grande on VAR and Gil Manzano refereeing, three Barcelona actions were annulled: an early Fermín strike for an Olmo foul, a De Jong finish for offside after Yamal's pass, and a first‑half penalty for offside on Yamal.
- Goalkeeper Alex Remiro produced eight saves as Barcelona also struck the woodwork five times, including efforts from Dani Olmo, Robert Lewandowski, Jules Koundé and a late Rashford corner.
- Lamine Yamal starred with relentless dribbling and an assist for Marcus Rashford's equalizer, but had a goal and a penalty disallowed.
- Hansi Flick responded with pointed irony to the reviews, and Yamal will miss Wednesday's Champions League visit to Slavia Prague due to suspension.
